Since 2012 Kārlis Kazāks organizes musical concert tours by bicycle “Cycling music“, changing concerts to overnight stays.” Velomūzikas “trips on bicycles around Latvia for 9 summers, made ten trips, covered about 5,000 kilometers and gave at least 80 concerts.
“How many kilometers a day can an untrained cyclist beat a bicycle loaded with bags and musical instruments? No idea. Are those paths marked with dashed lines on the map cycleable? No idea. Do you need to ask these questions to someone smarter? I don’t think at all… “It was not difficult to make a decision – bicycles and music, so Cycling music,” writes the author of the book about how a leisurely winter evening begins the adventure of cycling music. “After that, with each trip it becomes clearer what to plan and what not, what to take with you and what not. But the basic principle does not change: riders do not pay for accommodation, but earn accommodation with music.”
“Kārlis Kazāks is such a masterful storyteller that when you read the book, it seems that you have traveled with you everywhere.
Ilze Vācere, the editor of the book, adds: “This book is a very personal guide to a trip around Latvia. which is expressed and is important to him. “
The publishers emphasize that this is definitely not a story about cycling, it is a love story of Kārlis Kazāks – towards Latvia, music and people. And nothing that even for him sometimes during the trip I felt nauseous and wanted everyone to close “and listen to me”.
An e-book is also available.
